to use your kettle
1Fill the kettle through either the
spout or lid. To open the lid, push
the lid release and pull the lid back
. The water level must be
between ‘MAX’ and ‘MIN’ (0.2L).
Be economical: do not boil more
water than you need.
To improve the quality of your
drinks always use fresh water.
Empty the kettle after each use.
2Check the lid is closed.
3 Plug in and switch on. The indicator
light will come on.
4Your kettle will boil and switch off
automatically. To re-boil, wait a few
seconds - the on/off switch needs
time to reset.
If you experience problems
with your kettle switching on
and off during use or
switching off before boiling,
check that the flat element is
free from scale - see
“descaling”.
Your kettle is fitted with a filter to
hold back limescale particles.
If you find drops of water under
your kettle, don’t worry - it is just
condensation.
boil-dry protection
If you switch on with too little water,
your kettle will cut out automatically.
Switch off, unplug and let it cool
down before re-filling. When it has
cooled down, the switch will reset
itself.
care and cleaning
Before cleaning, unplug your kettle
and let it cool down.
the outside
Wipe with a damp cloth, then dry.
Do not use abrasives - they will
scratch the metal and plastic
surfaces.
the inside
Even though your kettle comes with
a filter, you still need to clean the
inside (and the filter) regularly.
the filter
1 Open the lid.
2Unclip and slide out the filter
.
3 either rinse under the tap or use a
soft brush.
or when descaling your kettle, drop
the filter in too. Rinse thoroughly.
4Replace the filter by locating the
front of the filter into the spout area
and then clip into place
.
descaling
Regular descaling of the flat
element will improve the
performance of your kettle. If the
kettle is not descaled regularly the
build up of limescale may result in
the following:
problems may be experienced
with the kettle switching on and
off during use or switching off
before boiling.
the kettle may take longer to boil.
the flat element may be
damaged.
Please note: Failure to descale your
kettle may invalidate your guarantee.
When limescale starts to build up
on the heating element, buy a
suitable descaler and descale your
kettle. After descaling, boil with
fresh water several times and
discard. Clean any descaler off the
kettle - it can damage the parts.

JKM076
Some regions of the country have
chalky water. This makes boiled
water look cloudy and leaves a
deposit on the side of the kettle.
This is normal but can be removed
with regular cleaning.
Alternatively, to reduce limescale
build up, use filtered water to fill
your kettle.
A range of Kenwood jug water
filters are available.

children and burns or scalds
advice from the British Burn Association
Every year, 30,000 children go to hospital with burns. What might be a minor
burn for an adult could horrifically injure - or even kill - a child.
take these precautions
Keep hot drinks out of children’s reach.
Don’t drink while holding your baby. If you’re passing someone a drink, make
sure a child isn’t underneath.
Keep your kettle, and its cord, well back from the worktop edge so that
children can’t grab them.
Keep children away from the kitchen work area.
For baby’s bath, run the cold water first, then add the hot. Mix well and test
the temperature with your elbow before you put baby in.
Teach children about hot things.
run cold water over a burn immediately, then get medical help.
Don’t stop to remove clothing.
